Yes, but a note on http://php.net/in_array would save some people's time, I think. At this point I've committed a user-note - hopefully this will save _some_ of the people from going insane. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-13 17:02:27] [EMAIL PROTECTED] We did, years ago. http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.conversion Torben ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-13 16:30:12] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It would be very nice if you guys would document this "feature" so people like me don't spend too much valueable time on such a thing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-04 16:00:21] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Doh! I should have known that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-04 15:49:37] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not a bug... PHP indeed tries to convert 'foobar' to a number, and because that is not really possible, it becomes 0. That's why there is that third parameter too. Derick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-04 15:37:18] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On my system, in_array wrongly returns true when searching for zero in arrays that don't contain zero: Sample code: in_array(0, array('foobar')); -->TRUE If I add the third parameter, it returns the correct result: print in_array(0, array('foobar'), true); -->FALSE However, I'm pretty sure that 0 doesn't coerce to 'foobar' - I don't think PHP is that loosely-typed :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14343&edit=1
